    “The map is not the territory.” ~ Alfred Korzybski
    “As LiDAR becomes rapidly refreshed, globally available, and directly ingested by machines, the question is no longer what we can measure.
    It’s whether humans retain the ability to understand, intervene in, and redirect how those measurements are used over time.
    This article focuses on spatial sovereignty, not as a policy position, but as a design discipline, and on why alignment with established standards is becoming a prerequisite for effective scale…”

  6. 📆Save the date for this #EGU science for policy #hangout on Monday, 4 August 2025 at 14:00 CEST.

    In this session Asmae Ourkiya will explore how #geoethics, an ethical framework rooted in #geoscience, can be enriched by exploring queer, intersectional perspectives.

    “[A] new analysis by Bloomberg has found the [Google Maps] platform routinely misleads people searching for abortion providers and clinics. When users search the words “abortion clinic” in Google Maps, nearly a quarter of the top 10 search results, on average and across all 50 states including Washington D.C., belong to crisis pregnancy centers. Crisis pregnancy centers, or CPCs, are a type of non-medical organizations with a mission to encourage women to go through with their unwanted pregnancies…”

  8. Our volunteer Bärbel Winkler filed her daily report from the 2023 EGU General Assembly.

    The post includes a laundry list of nuances and subtleties in communicating science to the general public in contexts fraught with hazard, risk and public policy implications, from the session "Beyond SciComm 101: what is meaningful & ethical communication when it comes to the climate crisis?"

    Shouting loudly is a bit too simple? It seems so.

  9. In her usual mode of wearing many hats our volunteer Bärbel Winkler reports in from EGU General Assembly 2023, where yesterday she and co-volunteer John Mason presented "Adding plain language summaries to rebuttals on Skeptical Science" as part of the all-day workshop "Science and Society: Science Communication Practice, Research, and Reflection."

    A wealth of experience and case examples for science communicators in the abstracts alone. Click and learn!

  10. #Geoethics. "The values and professional standards required of geoscientists to responsibly work in the profession and in service to society."

    Here are several resources for #teachers and #students to prompt discussions about #ethics in the #geosciences.

  11. taking a deep dive next year into timber tramlines, flourishing revegetation, geological specimens, #extractivism and representations of the nonhuman in the Museum of the Goldfields collection on a Art on the move Activating Collections Artist Residencies 2022. The residency will take place in Kalgoorlie-Boulder/Karlkurla on unceded Wangkathaa land. Many thanks to Art on the move and Museum of the Goldfields for making this happen. Couldn't have been better timing to get this amazing opportunity. So glad to be back in the studio and back in the field
